Henry Savage-Landor had a good deal to say about Persian carpets.
Observations on Sultanabad, Kerman, and Birjand have been previously
reported. Here are his characterizations of weaving in other parts
of Persia: Carpets are a chief manufacture of "Kasvin"
(Northwest Persia) ; Ispahan has a "flourishing" carpet-making
industry; Kashan makes some silk carpets; Kurdistan's product
is principally small prayer rugs, "rather vivid in colour";
and, carpets are also made at Kermanshah, Tabriz, and Yazd. (1)

Of these additional mentions, the only type really described is
the product of Shiraz: ". . .the long narrow rugs, as soft
as velvet, and usually with geometrical designs on them. Red,
blue, and white are the prevalent colours." (2)
